On my iMac G5, I just shut the opening, change batteries, go up to the odd triangle with 3 dots and using a USB mouse, 'discover' my bluetooth mouse. Sort of a mess, but it works. Sometimes on restart, it doesn't see the mouse either which is a pain. I just leave the USB mouse plugged in or nearby for that event.
